Mr. Oberhelman’s base salary last year was flat with 2014 at $1.6 million. His overall compensation increased because of larger awards of stock and options. He received stock and options worth $13 million when they were issued, compared with $8.4 million in 2014 when he received only options.

Late last month Indiana joined 15 other states with the passing of house bill 1080, better known as the “dead red” law.

The bill, authored by local state representative Mike Karickhoff (R), authorizes motorcycle, moped, and bicycle riders who fail to trigger a traffic signal at an intersection to drive through a red light, so long as the rider first stops for two minutes and then proceeds cautiously.

The other states that have “dead red” laws are Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Nevada, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and California.

Kim writes: "But making helmets mandatory for bicyclists could backfire: While they no doubt help in a crash, a law about them would also send the message, that bicycling is an inherently dangerous activity.

Turned out that it'd cause so many people then not bicycle at all, that the overall health benefits would decline."

Capt. Mario Lopes, a Washington D.C.-based pilot with United Airlines, learned that his son, First Lt. Mario Lopes, was scheduled to return from Kuwait on April 14. When Lopes learned that there was an opportunity to pilot a military flight to Norfolk, Virginia, on the same day, he knew he had to seize it.

"I told my wife that this couldn't be a coincidence," Lopes said. "No one could confirm or deny if he would actually be a passenger on my aircraft, but I knew I had to take the chance and find out."

When the day of the flight came, Lopes briefed the crew about his plan to surprise his son and asked for their help in distracting him.

give props to Ford for sponsoring this. It takes balls for a major corporation to open the checkbook for a guy like Furze and let him do whatever the hell he wants! If every American corporation was open-minded enough to sponsor top makers, we'd see some truly incredible things.

Colin Furze, the creator of this homemade hover bike, is a plumber, stuntman, inventor, filmmaker, and YouTuber from England.

Furze left school at 16 to become a plumber. After joining a Gadget Geeks’ Sky1 program, he started inventing things. This led to his insane popularity on Youtube with nearly 2.6-million subscribers and a quarter of a billion views total.

They started to build bicycle parts in 1890, Complete bicycles in 1900, motorcycles in 1903, and cars in 1907.

I still find it a compliment that anyone likes my photos more than the rest on the internet of some specific thing, but wouldn't it be cool if they would get in touch so I could talk car stuff with other enthusiasts that have a website? hell yeah!
